MPDF is a powerful PHP library that generates PDF files from HTML content. It uses the Unicode and HTML rendering engine to convert HTML with CSS styles into a PDF document. The "MPDF download" process refers to generating and forcing a PDF file to be downloaded by the user's browser rather than displayed or saved on the server. It uses the Unicode and HTML rendering engine
Once the library is installed, use the Output() method with specific parameters to trigger a direct download in the user's browser. shrink_tables_to_fit = 1
// Enable auto-size for large tables $mpdf->shrink_tables_to_fit = 1;
